Baku. Viktoria Dementieva – APA. "U.S. President and Secretary of
State hope that the process on "Armenian genocide" will stop just in
this point, will not move," Public Affairs Officer of the U.S. Embassy
in Azerbaijan Terry Davidson told APA.

He said there exist various views on this issue in the U.S. government
and Congress.

"The decision was passed as there are various views in the Congress.

We consider that Turkey and Armenia themselves should investigate what
happened in 1915. The US supports normalization of Turkey-Armenia
relations, including establishment of the historical commission to
investigate the events of 1915," he said.

Asked whether the Congress may recognize the "Armenian genocide"
in April, the diplomat said it is not a right step.

"The U.S. leadership considers that this issue will end just in this
point," he said.
